Both Incarceron and Sapphique are worth reading, IMHO. There are pros and cons to the books, like all.
One of the major cons to me was that in the first book there was a substantial amount of profanity and crude language. The Lord's name was taken in vain over a dozen times (as I remember), but it made me feel slightly better that the examples were all in tense situations and not used casually. The second book used it far less, but the word b***h was used quite a lot.
The characters were all very vivid, which I love.
Keiro was my absolute favorite, probably because he reminds me of my character Iri: rash, charming, pragmatic and vain. The story was entertaining and fresh in the setting, though not so much in the ideas. The themes of the first book surprised me, because although it was a secular book the themes seemed to have some hints of Christian values. One principle was that men are basically evil at heart, and the other was that all the characters were running from themselves, which I found fascinating.On the whole, it's something I enjoyed reading and would definitely read again. By the bye, they're apparently making a movie of the first one and Taylor Lautner has been cast as Finn, the main character .... for anyone who's interested.
